Although tattoos symbolise and mean different things depending on where you go in the world the skill and creativity that goes into creating them is something that can be appreciated universally, particularly in these instances were tattoos have been used as a clever way of covering up unwanted scars with some truly amazing results.
Although we can sometimes be born with marks on our skin, scars are often the result of surgery or an accident and therefore a form of trauma – but rather than let the still visible scars serve as a daily reminder of more troublesome times these people have chosen to make some good from it – choosing tattoos that either completely cover or sometimes even interact with their scars in the cleverest of ways.
